Suggest Treatment For Cuts

Hi, im a meat cutter. i cut my middle index finger deep (2 months ago). I have been getting pains recently in the wound area, the knuckle on the right index and now around the thumb as well. More or less just feels stiff and i seem to notice the pain more when lifting weight.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi and welcome to HCm. Thanks for the query.
There is no some specific treatment which can be done now. this cut had to be properly managed by cleaning and wound suturing. if there was damage to nerves or tendons then plastic surgeon should have seen this and do proper surgical management. now,you can have physical therapy and do neurologic exam.
Wish you good health. Regards
